Homing Ender Eye
Homing Ender Eye changes how broken Eyes of Ender behave, and a Stronghold's End Portal Frame can then be filled from the pool of eyes a server keeps.
What it does
When an Eye of Ender breaks, the mod spawns an End Portal Frame in its place, giving players a simple way to recover their progress toward the End. Server owners pick one of two modes in the server config save file. Shared mode is the default and lets every player draw on the same pool of broken Eyes of Ender. Individual mode keeps a separate record for each player, so one player's broken Eyes do not count for another. A new End portal only needs three Eyes in its frames, and in Individual mode a player who broke three Eyes alone has to fill them from their own record.
Installation requires Cloth Config API on every loader, and Fabric API on Fabric. Mod Menu is optional and adds a config screen. Homing Ender Eye runs on the server and is optional for clients, so players can join without installing it. Files exist for 1.12.2 and for fifteen other releases up to 1.21.8, published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, under the MIT License. The source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Broken Eyes spawn frames
A broken Eye of Ender leaves an End Portal Frame behind, so the eye's progress is not lost.
Shared or individual mode
The server config switches between a pool shared by all players and a separate record for each player.
Server-side configuration
The mode is stored in the server config save file, and changing it resets the stored Eye data.
Three eyes per portal
A new End portal needs only three Eyes of Ender in its frames, counted from the active mode's data.
